<h1>Overview of adding features for users</h1>

<p>You can provide several report manipulation capabilities for report 
 analysts, by either enabling them or creating and adding them to an existing 
 report. These options provide an interactive reporting experience to your 
 users. User features you should consider adding include:</p>

<ul type="disc" class="whs1">
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a HREF="Selecting_an_autostyle_for_a_report.htm">Changing 
 the overall look of a report: Autostyles</a></p></li>
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a HREF="Enable_drilling.htm">Enabling or restricting 
 drilling in a report</a></p></li>
</ul>

<p>Once your report is created, execute and look at your new report to 
 be sure it is visually pleasing. Consider applying an 
<a HREF="Selecting_an_autostyle_for_a_report.htm">autostyle</a> 
 to ensure that the report is easy to read.</p>

<p>Analysts can apply a number of formatting characteristics to a report 
 they have executed. However, the report's designer can apply a broader 
 range of formatting options to a report, so that users can more effectively 
 understand the data displayed on the report, or to simply achieve a pleasing 
 and easy-to-read look.</p>

<p>Formatting options you should consider include:</p>

<ul type="disc" class="whs1">
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a href="Formatting_cells_in_a_report.htm">Formatting 
 row and column headers and cells</a></p></li>
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a href="Selecting_an_autostyle_for_a_report.htm">Applying 
 a set of formatting: Autostyles</a></p></li>
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a href="Resize_columns_and_rows.htm">Resizing 
 columns and rows</a></p></li>
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a href="Merge_lock_headers.htm">Merging column 
 and row headers</a></p></li>
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a href="Lock_column_rows_and_headers.htm">Locking 
 column and row headers</a></p></li>
	
	
<li class=kadov-p><p>
<a href="Remove_extra_column.htm">Removing the 
 extra &quot;metrics&quot; column from a report</a></p></li>
</ul>

 chapter of the <span style="font-style: italic;"><I>MicroStrategy Advanced 
 Reporting Guide</I></span>.</p>
